An Author's Tale

Mardi Harper's life is turned upside down when the ghost of Socrates drops by to fix his new trial and her love life. 

Mardi is a famous, frustrated writer who lives inside the safety of her tales.  She meets the ghost of the man who will force her to take a step outside.

Socrates has a chance to prove to the world he was right... the first time... via a class project where the ancient philosopher is re-tried for his crimes.  He realizes his only chance at survival... the second time... is for Mardi to believe. 

A wealth of understanding from the old man, combined with a chance to find love with a real one, gives Mardi the faith to believe in both.
